Short explanation
The Directorist: AI-Powered Business Directory, Listings & Classified Ads plugin before 8.11 fails to check user editing permissions during email-verification bulk actions in multisite environments [S0]. This flaw allows an Administrator of one site to lock out users of other sites [S0]. The patch status is currently unknown [S0].
It allows a site administrator on the network to lock out users of other sites, including the network Super Administrator, until they re-verify their email [S0]. This creates authorization boundaries issues [S0].
What should be done?
- Update the Directorist plugin or follow vendor advisories [S0].
- Review and audit administrator privileges across multisite networks [S0].
